First few weeks @ Precious Blood

From July 9 to July 12 I did trainings for the altar servers of the parish. From July 16 to July 20 there was a Bible Vacation Camp for children.

Summer time is a good time to plan for the new school year. On July 16, I joined the core members of the youth group for picnic to plan activities for the coming year. We also fed many birds.

Very happy to baptize 4 babies this month.

My first Baptism @ Precious Blood (July 14):

Baptism of the granddaughter of the parish secretary (July 21):

Baptism of 2 baby boys on July 28:

During the quiet summer time, I also enjoyed the visits of friends.

Family Rosary @ my family home in Vancouver (July 13 & 27):

Visit of Fr. Francis Ching from Toronto and a family from Vancouver (July 24):

As new pastor, there are many things to learn on administration. Had my first finance council meeting on July 26. I am very grateful for the helps and supports from the staff and parishioners of the parish.

Our Lady of the Clergy, Pray for Us!

O Priest! thou art not thyself, because thou art God; thou art not of thyself, because thou art the servant and minister of Christ; thou art not thine own, because thou art the spouse of the Church; thou art not for thyself, because thou art the mediator between God and man; thou art not from thyself, because thou art nothing. What then art thou, O Priest? Nothing and everything. O Priest! take care lest what was said to Christ on the Cross be said to thee: He saved others, himself he cannot save. -St. Norbert
